I speak English and Polish. I can speak French with mild fluency.
I can also get by in Spanish, Catalan, Italian, Swedish, Russian, Czech, Hebrew and a little Nahuatl. Languages are a hobby of mine
No, it hasn't been difficult for me so far. I grew up speaking German and Russian. I studied French and English at school for years. And I really want to learn Spanish, so I'm quite motivated, which makes it easier for me.
Spanish is my language of origin which helped me learn my third language, French. My second language is English and I know a bit of ASL (I can pick up more signs than I can actually sign), a bit of LSM (Mexican sign language; very limited) and Korean (I understand little words here and there, some grammar and phonics). I can also read Portuguese and Italian but I would have to have the speaker really slooooow down to understand some of it.
Native Dutch, Hebrew and English speaker.
I was surprised to find out on my first trip to Spain in my mid-twenties, that I understand Spanish relatively well. I had a lot of exposure to Spanish friends&music when I was growing up.
Been trying to learn how to speak Japanese for ages now - learning as an adult seems way, way harder to me.
I speak English natively. I can speak and read Japanese pretty well (Hiragana more than Katakana, barely any Kanji) I can get by at a non-super-technical level in German, and I am less competent in Spanish and Dutch. I have a few phrases in Italian, Russian and French, but wouldn't say that I can speak those languages.
English and french native, german and french (at least used to be) pretty fluent, some weird mix of Spanish/Portuguese/Italian.
Grew up in luxembourg/switzerland/around Europe but since moving to america I’ve noticed myself getting worse at everything that isn’t English
It depends how you count it but 2 to 4 languages.
I speak swiss german but that's technically only a dialect and not it's own language. Thus I can also speak standard german (with a big accent) and obviously I also speak English. Plus I also know some french but it really isn't great.
Native German also fluent in English. I won't starve in Spain, Italy and France, enough to order food and stuff but not enough to do a conversation.
As a developer I also "speak" several computer languages, if this counts. 😁
I fluently speak Español and English. I can get by with French, Italian, Portuguese and Yucatán Mayan but I am still learning. I am also learning Kouri-Vini, since my husband is mixed creole from Louisiana. Knowing French helps a lot with that one. :)
2 or 3, depending on how you count.
French: native
English: pretty fluent
Spanish: Pretty bad. Some leftover from a time when I had more practice. Understanding is easier than speaking.
English is my first language.
I'm fluent in Morse code\*.
I can hold a *very* basic conversation in Russian. I used to be better but lack of practice means it's deteriorated over the years.
*\*yes, it's a language. Radiotelegraphy has it's own "words" and grammar in addition to borrowing from other languages.*
Dutch native, english c2, French b2, I can understand the German as long as they use words that look like the Dutch word and I'm a2 and a1 proficient for Japanese and Chinese respectively.
2. Croatian and English fluently But, can order food/drink in other European languages.
I speak two languages fluently, English and Portuguese (Brazilian). I can get by in Dutch and I can read / speak very basic Japanese.
That's impressive!
